Greggs has officially announced the anticipated comeback of its Festive Bake, with eager fans counting down the days until its return to stores on Thursday, November 6. The popular Festive Bake is a delectable pastry filled with succulent chicken, savory sage and onion stuffing, crispy bacon, and smothered in a velvety sage and cranberry sauce.
Described by Greggs as an essential part of the Christmas season, the Festive Bake is likened to traditional holiday staples like finding socks in your stocking or attending the annual office party.
In addition to the Festive Bake, Greggs will also reintroduce the Vegan Lattice (Festive Edition) across all its outlets. This vegan option includes Quorn mycoprotein pieces, sage and onion stuffing, vegan bacon, and is complemented by cranberry and red onion sauce.
Joining the festive lineup is the Hot Christmas Lunch Baguette, a convenient on-the-go treat that encapsulates the flavors of a Christmas feast with chicken, sage and onion stuffing, bacon, melted cheddar, cranberry relish, and onion gravy.
Moreover, the Hot Festive Flatbread is making a comeback, featuring a blend of sage and onion chicken mayo, bacon, and cranberry relish enclosed in a warm flatbread.
For those with a sweet tooth, Greggs will offer a variety of festive delights including the Christmas Cake Slice, Gingerbread Muffin, Chocolate & Hazelnut Doughnut, and Christmas Mini Caramel Shortbreads.
To keep customers warm during the winter months, Greggs is introducing a range of festive hot drinks such as Mint Mocha, Mint Hot Chocolate, Gingerbread Latte, and Salted Caramel Latte, available both hot and over ice.
The price adjustments on select menu items by Greggs were attributed to increasing costs, with the breakfast deals seeing a rise from £2.95 to £3.15 for the two-part deal and from £3.95 to £4.15 for the three-part deal. Additionally, certain baked goods like the empire biscuit have increased by 5p.
As part of its commitment to transparency, Greggs has communicated these updates to its customers, ensuring they are informed about any changes in pricing.
